FAQs
Is the New Balance 57/40 suitable for running?
These sneakers are designed as lifestyle footwear for casual wear and are not engineered for professional running or high-intensity sports.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can compromise the materials and the adhesive properties of the sole.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The primary material is a lightweight mesh, which provides increased breathability for daily comfort.
How do I maintain the grey color?
Avoid walking in deep mud or dusty areas; perform regular spot cleaning to prevent dirt from settling deep into the mesh fibers.
Are these sneakers unisex?
While some variants are gender-specific, the 57/40 series offers various options including unisex designs suitable for all adults.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the grey mesh upper
Gently scrub the affected area with a soft-bristled brush dipped in a solution of mild soap and water, then pat dry with a clean cloth.
Midsole cushioning feels less responsive after long-term wear
Ensure the shoes are not being worn for high-impact activities like running; consider rotating with another pair to allow the foam time to recover.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 57/40 sneakers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper features mesh, avoid machine washing, which can damage the structural integrity of the fabric. Instead, spot clean using a soft brush, mild detergent, and lukewarm water. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or heat sources, as high heat can warp the cushioning components. For size compatibility, verify your UK sizing as these models are designed for a standard adult fit.
